Betty’s Story
Partner & Vehicle Technician
The Partner working in our very own vehicle repair workshops help maintain our entire fleet of vehicles – from HGV lorries to 3.5t vans. Whether it’s scheduled maintenance or ad-hoc repairs, the teams work hard to keep our fleet out on the road, a critical part to the smooth running of the entire retail operation and ultimately, to the success of the business.
Our vehicle work shops are based in:
- Origin Park, North London
- Magna Park, Milton Keynes
- Bracknell, Berkshire
- Aylesford, Kent
- Leyland, Lancashire
- Coulsdon, South London

Betty’s Story
Betty works in one of our workshops and wanted to share her career story so far and why she continue to develop as a Vehicle Technician in the Partnership…
“I found the Partnership while looking for a career move and a fresh start. After previously holding several roles that never really felt right, I found myself wanting to start a career working on vehicles. After reading about the Apprentice Heavy Vehicle Technician role on the JLPJobs.com website, I knew it was the right fit for me.
From my very first day, the team has been incredibly supportive, always willing to help and share valuable knowledge to help me grow. The role itself has been incredibly rewarding. It’s hands-on, practical work where every day brings new and interesting challenges, which only makes me more eager to learn.
I can see myself having a long, exciting career within the Partnership with plenty of opportunities for both personal and professional growth. Overall, the Partnership is a great place to grow and be part of an incredible team. The skills I’m developing here will stay with me for the rest of my career, and I’m excited about what the future holds.”
